Crate Schematic and speaker questions

5/7/2000 3:44 PM
Phil Saunders	Crate Schematic and speaker questions Just bought a used Crate VC-2112RB amp. It's a Class A, 3 12AX7, 2 EL84 job. I was looking for a cheap, Voxy sound--this amp seems to have that, especially if you dime the level and use the gain knob sparingly. 1) Does anyone have a schematic or know where I can get one? 2) Recommended replacement speakers for maximum chime--I was thinking about a Weber P12B (or possibly the ceramic C12B). 3) It uses a 16 Ohm speaker. If I replaced it with an 8 ohm model, would this cause problems? What impedance does the Vox AC-15 reissue use? Thanks for any help!
